Top Things to See and Do on a Cottage Holiday in Newbury

• Highclere Castle is just 10 minutes’ drive from Newbury.  This historic house is where Downton Abbey was filmed and the house can be visited by the public in the summer time (from July to the start of September) but tickets are limited and often sell out way in advance.

• Another popular historical attraction to visit is Donnington Castle, which is just outside of Newbury.  Only the gatehouse of what was Donnington Castle remains yet this English Heritage property is still a fascinating place to visit.

 

• Get out and explore the North Wessex Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, whether you enjoy walking, cycling, horse riding or wildlife watching, this is a superb area of stunning countryside.  There are also plenty of fisheries near to Newbury including lakes and fishing strips along the River Kennet.

Whether you rent an apartment or holiday house within Newbury itself or stay in the nearby countryside, we hope you find the perfect holiday cottage on Country Cottages Online for your Newbury holiday.
